I'm a pretty silly person, interested in the fascinating wonders life has to offer. My education is in mechanical engineering and my longterm career interests are in energy conservation & renewable energy, namely photovoltaics. I have a cat named Frankie, I love playing the guitar and violin, I practice yoga, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and try to keep up with a daily meditation practice.

I really love having curious, multifaceted conversations with others on all sorts of topics.
